Hello, I have seen a few reviews on this forum regarding books about caudates, and I was wondering if you all could give me an idea of what the best (or at least most informative) books are that are available to be purchased. I am trying to learn as much as possible, and while this website is one of the best resources, I would love to learn more!
Thanks!
 
It depends in how much depth you want to go. If you want general, get the book by Indiviglio. If you're really into it, get Petranka. Read the reviews on them so you know what to expect. If you field herp, the Petersen guides are indispensible, though I also love my Audubon books. If you read through the reviews, you'll get an idea of which ones people love, by the comments people make after the reviews, and by the reviews themselves.
 
Swear by Petranka, I do. Got a few used copies very cheap, so I keep one next to the throne and another on my nightstand.:D

    with axolotls would I basically have to keep buying and buying new axolotls to prevent inbred breeding which costs a lot of money??

    Not necessarily but if you’re wanting to continue to grow your breeding capacity then yes. Breeding axolotls isn’t a cheap hobby nor is it a get rich quick scheme. It costs a lot of money and time and deditcation

    Would Chinese fire belly newts be more or less inclined towards an aquatic eft set up versus Japanese . I'm raising them and have abandoned the terrarium at about 5 months old and switched to the aquatic setups you describe. I'm wondering if I could do this as soon as they morph?
